Penumbra Theatre Company will take its production of Radio Golf to The August Wilson Center for African American Culture in Pittsburgh, PA, to run November 14-15. Lou Bellamy directs.
Radio Golf, the final play in Wilson’s ten-play cycle that chronicles the African-American experience in the 20th century decade by decade, features Terry Bellamy, James Craven, Abdul Salaam El Razzac, Austene Van, and Kevin D. West.
The Penumbra production will be one of four that will be part of the center’s Aunt Ester Cycle, which will run November 10-22. The other companies and productions participating are The St. Louis Black Repertory which will present Gem of the Ocean, the Pittsburgh Playwrights Theatre Company production of Two Trains Running and The Women of the Hill, an original performance created partly in Pittsburgh’s historic Hill District by theatrical innovator Ping Chong. The two-week event also includes two symposia: The Legend of Aunt Ester and reConstructing King Hedley II.
